The YouTubers BunchCallum’s Videos
Today, I am using Chrome Remote Desktop, SonoBus for audio, ARCP990 for rig control, N1MM and an HDMI capture card to show the 990 screen on the host machine. The Com is currently in a Webcam but I have ordered a cable so I can work with ACOM Director software to see what the amplifier is doing.
Anyway, have a play along, see if you can hear me or just join in the chat.

In this video, I briefly walk you through how to remote control any radio with a CAT port and soundcard ability. This is what I use:
Chrome Remote Desktop (for desktop)
Discord (for Voice)
ARCP 990 but ANY control program will work
Camdesk 1.2.1 (for webcam window to amplifier)
TS990 display via an HDMI capture card (and Camdesk again)
I run 2 x serial ports, one for N1MM and one for Kenwood’s ARCP 990 (ethernet port currently broken)
Next up is full control of Acom 2000 amplifier
I would really enjoy a PTT but currently only VOX
Yes, I know I can do this with a FLEX or a TON of other control systems that cost money – but it’s what I had lying around – and a bit of ingenuity that all Ham Radio operators enjoy – and I wanted this extra functionality FREE!

OK, a bit of news – then let’s get on HF and have a blast.
Let us be a Focus Group and tell manufacturers what we REALLY want with our radios. HF, VHF, Mobile or Base Station – let’s put it all in a pot and decide what is important, what could be very cool and what’s mandatory. And then, there’s the fantasy stuff for the Ultimate Machine too..? Join us and contribute.

Callum’s Ham Radio Live Stream from Holly Farm in England. Ham Radio is all about playing about with RF and seeing who we can say hello to and marvel at the wonder of science and radio propagation.
I normally go live on a Friday and "play radio". Let’s see how far we can get, what conditions are doing around the globe etc. Starting on 40m and moving up to 20m, 15m and 10m – then back down again. See if you can hear me, join in the chat or just listen in. Callum.
